Windows Movie Maker Help?

[Off-Roader]

So I use movie maker for everything I film from RoR and real life
And I was wondering if you guys knew how to do something very simple... deleting the middle of a clip. The only way I have done it is by ending the video at the beginning of the section I wanted deleted, then make another video from the original and start it after the wanted deleted section.

Catch my drift?

I'm not sure of this is the same thing you're talking about, but here's the best way.

Assuming you're using Windows Live Movie Maker, you'll want to go into the timeline view and drag the little line so that your video is sitting at the part you want to cut. When the line is in position, right click the video file on the timeline and click 'Split', which will split it into two files.

Obviously because you want to delete a whole section, you'll want to drag the line again and repeat the process with a later part of the video, which will leave you with a midsection that can be deleted, making the video cut to the later sections once it hits that point.
Hopefully that made sense.

Yes its Live Movie Maker

I understand what you're saying, which is basically what I've been doing. I was just wondering if there was a way to just a "timeline" type thing to cut things out
Ex. Just the start and stop of the timeline that cuts part of the video out rather than making 2 parts

I suggest getting a better video editor like sony vegas or the adobe one whatever its called there way better :P
